The Chicago Bulls face the New York Knicks tonight and come into the game at 4 and 7. The revamped Bulls resemble the Bulls of old and need to focus on defense if they are going to improve. This season the Bulls are in to top of the Leage in points allowed and have not figured out how to stop anyone. This team relies on an up-tempo game and tries to outscore opponents. With often injured Zach Lavine, the Bulls are playing a game of chance and need to look long term if they want to make the playoffs.
The Bulls have Frank White who can emerge as a defensive star if he will allow this to happen. Over the past three seasons he has shown flashes of being a big-time defender, but lack of execution and injuries have set him back. Alonzo Ball is making a valiant effort in coming back from knee surgery and is progressing nicely. However, if the Bulls are to take that next step others on the team need to find their role and work to build the team’s chemistry.
So lets see what Billy Donvan can do to bring this team to the playoffs and give Chicago fans something to cheer about.
